Subject: [PATCH] Detail 'other' directories in the README

Elements can use arbitrary directories in diskimage-builder, so
ensure we make mention of that, and give an example of such a use.

+### Other Subdirectories ###
+
+Elements may have other subdirectories that are processed by specific elements
+rather than the diskimage-builder tools themselves.
+
+One example of this is the ``bin`` directory.  The ``rpm-distro``, ``dpkg`` and
+``opensuse`` elements install all files found in the ``bin`` directory into
+``/usr/local/bin`` within the image as executable files.

 ### Environment Variables ###
 
 To set environment variables for other hooks, add a file to environment.d.
